I would not do anything until you know that CJ are ok to soak with water. I know most exhibits soak fine but a few of the colored ones like red, blue, pink have issues with losing ink and sometimes it spreading or just going away (I had a pink Traynor that lost all its color bummer). Also I know the red in E93's sometimes has issues, as you can see on the glove and belt below.

I've had mixed results with soaking. I soaked an e90-1 that had scotch tape on the back and the soaking improved the card from very poor to poor.
I soaked a t213-2 with scotch tape on the back and the tape came off, but the front was completely ruined. Both cards were very poor to begin with. I would hesitate to soak a card that I thought had any value as it is. |

Ive soaked both 1914s and 1915s w/o a problem, just never tried to remove dirt or used a q-tip/towel to dab/blot with.

I've had success with paper stuck on but have not tried the Q-tip method for stains/dirt. Anyone successful with T206s? Would love to try on this guy.
